LENOVO Outs New Gaming Laptops Powered by Intel

Looks like the folks from LENOVO are taking their gaming rigs seriously as they come out with three new products, the ideapad Gaming 3i, the Lenovo Legion Legion 5i Series and the Legion 5i Pro.

The ideapad Gaming 3i has 15.6 FHD ips, 1920x1080 resolution, 512GB PCI SSD, 1TB HDD, battery life that can last 8 hours and be charged 50% in 30mins. It's also got 2 USB 3.2 ports, ethernet jack, headphone and mic jack, and wishes to be your best buddy in gaming. The device has got 165Hz refresh rate that used to be done in monitors, but now can do it on smaller form factor (laptop). You can use this for media, movies, editing, all that good thing on this laptop. Equipped with an intel i7 11th gen processor, with more power and less power consumption, it could last the whole work day. It's also easy to carry around and will be available in Lazada, Shopee, Lenovo and Legion concept stores and authorized resellers. It's only available in Shadow Black color. Price starts at around Php 59,995.

The Lenovo Legion Legion 5i on the other hand comes in Stingray White and Phantom Blue. It looks great, but don't fret, it is powerful as it is equipped with GEForce RTX 30 series gracphics card (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 in this case), AI Engine, 15.6 QHD display which any gamer would love. It also works on a fast 165 Hz refresh rate and less than 3 ms response time. It also is equipped with a TrueStrike Keyboard system present in the products launched with this one. They also have Nahimic Gaming Audio which gives you a more immersive experience and sound quality. It is also equipped with 3 USBA 3.2 ports, so you have more stuff to stick to it like cameras, earphones, more peripherals if you want to attach more devices. It's not that heavy either and is easy to carry around, and of course, has got the latest GPU line. If you want on, you've got to shell out around Php 72,995 for it.

For the more serious gamers, I'd like to suggest you get the Legion 5i Pro. It's got a 16 inch QHD with a 16:10 aspect ratio. Also has an unbelievable 12 hours max clock speed, a built in 720p front camera, Thunderbolt 4 ports, TrueStrike Keyboard system and is available in Storm Grey and Stingray White colorways. They also have a 3 year Legion customer support for devices which you can get so you get covered if service is needed. This is also available in Lazada and authorized Lenovo stores nationwide. You can get it for Php 124,995. It comes in Stingray White color and is equipped with an Intel Core i7 processor and an RTX3070 graphics card, something you'll need for those pro ranked games. It's a dream in a nutshell and is pretty nice to have when you're planning to beat foes on your FPS games.

If you want to push for more, get the Lenovo Legion 7i. It's a beast carrying a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Graphics card and next generation Legion Coldfront 3.0 thermals so you don't have to worry about overheating. It's not bulky and has a slim form factor, also a whopping WQXGA display and 165 Hz refresh rate. Turn up the volume and you'll hear how good the 3D Nahimic Audio is so you'll hear those footsteps when enemies walk by easily. This comes in Storm Grey and costs Php 169,995. Make sure you're buying from official stores in Shopee and Lazada, and authorized ones if they're third party so you qualify for the warranty (we need to be secured of course!).
